Todd -

Thanks.  Mine has been acting up intermittantly for a few months.  I don't
use it often, but was frustrated when I didn't find it in Bentley.  Now I
know how to tackle the problem (when the weather warms up!)

This is the reason I read the list, not to have to delete posts about neat
radio shows.

Subject: Cruise control tips

Hello,

I just finished diagnosing why my cruise control in my '88 Westy was not
working and thought I'd pass on a few tips.

First, the Bentley has the troubleshooting page for cruise control a bit
hidden - at least for me, it took a few going's through the manual to find
it. Anyway, it is on pages 27.25 though 27.31 The heading on this page, and
the others (The reason I had such a problem finding it) is titled in bold
print " ELECTRICAL- BATTERY, STARTER, ALTERNATOR.

Note: The control unit location is stated as "behind instrument panel -
right"  What they mean is: "Behind the glove compartment. If you drop the
glove compartment, you will see the silver control unit.
